Friends, I promise I am not ignoring the Wine Board and the missing or broken pieces. Here is the deal...

We have an enormous amount of data on the Wine Board. None of it is lost. Part of the storage thread was not imported from the last time and as a result we have to go in and reimport it from the previous work that was done. That's our error and it will get fixed. Before we do that and fix the minor details like showing your correct age, how many posts you've made, smiley faces and such, we desperately have to go in and fix the Search Engine Optimization for the whole site. There are thousands of links that need to be redirected so that WINES.com crawls to the top of Google. If we do not fix that first we are in trouble. That should be done tomorrow, latest on Monday. Once that is done we will resume fixing the Wine Board.

When its all said and done and the fixes are in place next week, this thing will be smoking. So the next question is that we cannot have too many Admins. Please tell me if you WANT to be an admin. You must be committed to allowing people who make a mistake to correct their mistake. Obvious spammers are open targets. Just let me know who's interested....
